OVERVIEW

We are all one.
People are interconnected by invisible forces. Creative documentary about the history of immigration of Serbian people to the USA. Road movie through the present, from the East Coast to the West Coast.
Journey through the past, from the first Serbian immigrant until today. Search for identity and bonding. Global story about a nation.

CHALLENGES & APPROACH

Since we were entrusted with the post-production work, which included the full engagement of a video editor, colorist, graphic designer, audio designer, and mixer, we faced high production goals and great expectations.

 

As our studio, Paina Studio, has over a decade of experience and a creative approach to post-production, we gladly accepted this great challenge, along with the responsibility for all elements of post-production.

 

The biggest challenge in post-production was analyzing the extensive footage, followed by creating a unique and complex film structure through video editing. This structure features over 30 interviewees whose stories intertwine to form a unique narrative that captivates the audience throughout the entire film.

 

Precise video editing helped establish a smooth rhythm that holds the viewer’s attention from start to finish. Additionally, it was crucial to color-grade the film in warmer tones, as its message conveys the bright optimism of people who have taken their fate into their own hands, fighting for their well-deserved place.

THE RESULT

„Why Tesla Nation?

Tesla Nation is a symbol which is recognized as a possibility of bonding in order to achieve positive goals. Tesla Nation is a symbol that doesn’t require geographical explanation. Tesla Nation is globally recognized as a brand which states that positive values can only be achieved by efforts and results. Today we have the opportunity to choose Nikola Tesla as a symbol of re-establishing communication, because Tesla is the name acknowledged by all. “– Director and producer Zeljko Mirkovic
